Odilon RedonOtherworldly Visions

Charcoal drawings, lithographs and pastels by the French Symbolist Odilon Redon, drawn mostly from Getty’s own collection.

The show moves between Redon’s dark charcoal drawings and the luminous pastels of his later years, with works such as The Battle of the Bones (about 1881), the lithograph Everywhere Eyeballs Are Aflame (1888) and the pastel portrait Baronne de Domecy (about 1900). It traces his sources in religion, mythology, literature and the science of his time; a pastel Orpheus is lent by the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco.
